    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Cracker heads.

    Certainly a few hours gone into getting those trophies. What length was the longest antler on your Sambar? nice strong beams.

    Big Bang, have you eaten anything you shot in those spots you put up? I'd advise against it

    K Road,s like dangerous game hunting, keep your wits about you and never turn your back on the game, or it might take you unexpectedly from behind.
    Mermaid bar... Hmmmm love the 300 WSM speargun.
    Good advice Pointer to watch what you eat

    Hi Big Bang,
    what sort of country was the fallow shot in? Pines, bush, tussock? I have never shot one with such dark staining on the antlers. it looks awesome.
